Age Verification Policy

1. Minimum Age Requirements

• Under 13: Not allowed to use Vibble. Accounts may be disabled.
• 13–15: Limited features, stricter privacy, reduced discoverability.
• 16–17: Expanded access with ongoing safety protections.
• 18+: Full access to monetization, certain content types, and advanced features.

2. Verification Methods

Vibble may use a combination of:

• Self-declared birthdate at sign-up.
• Device and app-store age classifications.
• Behavioral signals indicating underage use.
• Government ID verification for monetization or disputed cases.
• Parental or guardian confirmation where legally required.

3. Age-Based Feature Controls

Examples of age-based restrictions include:

• No direct monetization features for users under 18.
• Limited messaging and interaction for users under 16.
• Reduced exposure in trends and recommendations for minor accounts.
• Stricter content filtering and sensitive-media controls.

4. Handling Suspected Underage Accounts

If Vibble reasonably believes an account belongs to a user below the permitted age:

• The account may be temporarily restricted or disabled.
• Proof of age may be requested via secure verification channels.
• Failure to provide proof may result in permanent removal.

5. Parental & Guardian Requests

Parents or legal guardians may request review, restriction, or deletion of an underage child’s account where permitted by law.
